King of the Jews... No, the Other One

Was Herod the Great really great? He had the support of Marc Antonoy and Octavian. Rome even proclaimed him “King of the Jews” when he was placed in power. Cleopatra would stop by to say hi. He was married to a Jewish princess, he had wealth, status, a brilliant mind for leadership as well as architecture…. What more could the Judeans want from him?

One of the only stories still remembered about King Herod is the slaughter of innocent babies in the Gospel of Matthew. Could Herod have truly done such a terrible thing? Who is this character that was so threatened by prophecy he felt he needed to take such drastic measures? And how does the Roman King of the Jews compare to the King of Kings?
